The handle that came with our T11 meant height adjustment was very slow. So we customised it with a Allen wrench for faster adjustment, but it would still foul the fence if the hole is in the wrong place, so your solution is a good one. Otherwise I agree that the T11 is superb, except for the...

I like the socket drive height adjustment. I seem to recall that the adjuster on the T11 isn't brilliant, and that looks like a good solution. However, I'm intrigued why you have hinged the top that way. Surely access would be better if the hinges are at the back and it opens at the front, or...

Does anyone know from whom you can buy PEG (polyethylene glycol) these days for stabilising wet wet? Thanks Nick

It does look good. There's a review in the latest issue of British Woodworking! Cheers Nick

That's my inclination too. Perhaps the winner could go up against a mask?? Which normal masks do people recommend? Nick

We've been conducting a test of respirators for the next issue, mainly between the PowerCap and the new Trend Airshield Pro. That's the first we'd heard of the Triton, but will get straight onto them for a sample to test, if it's still available. We're also looking at how the new Trend compares...

Thanks, everyone (though especially to all the contributors, your cheques are in the post). Sorry about Wood School: we just ran out of space and time. The rocking chair is fantastic. I'd love to take a trip over to Ireland just to see it. To my eternal regret, I learnt more about John Brown...

Obviously I meant Jessem. Sorry, don't know what happened there. My fingers are too fast! Nick

I've been asked by a reader for some details about the Jess Router Table. He wants some dimensions. Has anyone got one so that I can give him some help? Thanks Nick

That's a great idea. Or badges. I think the Forum does a great job, and the anonymity is the only part of it I find a bit awkward. I'd love to be able to thank some of our supporters at shows, but don't who's who! Nick

It's very sad to have to report that John Brown, the chairmaking columnist, died this morning in his sleep. He'd been gravely ill for a few weeks. Anyone who read his columns in Good Woodworking 15 years ago will remember his passion, his opinions, his handtools, his chairs, and his cat...

I'd like to add my congrats to Mike and his crew for putting on a great event at West Dean. They all work really hard spreading the woodworking word, and do so with a smile on their faces. I had a fantastic time meeting the demonstrators and lots of new and familiar readers. Thanks to everyone...

Thanks for the comments. The gaps in the classified pages are due to my lack of effort in selling ads there yet. I've been concentrating harder on the editorial pages and offering special ideas for display advertisers. But I welcome any help. We've had a good amount of support from the...

Some of you will remember the regular columns by John Brown in Good Woodworking, about his time as a chairmaker, working without electricity. He probably won't thank me for telling you this, but he's very ill. I am going to see him next week. I know his columns inspired many woodworkers. If...

You didn't miss a trick. The kit is given away if you subscribe. An earlier post on this thread wasn't quite clear about that. Sorry for not clearing that up earlier. Cheers Nick

Very glad to hear others find the sanding block as great as we do. You can buy a more flexible hose from Mirka which doesn't get in the way so much, and it has a cone at the end to fit into almost any vac. It was indeed invented for car body repair shops. You can subscribe to British...

I've had an email today from a subscriber asking for suppliers of Abranet having received his kit today. So you should have satisfaction soon, Rob. Cheers Nick

It appears Simon bought this subscription through newstand.co.uk. We have no direct dealings with that company. I think they buy magazines direct from local wholesalers and then send them out. They may or may not be offering a good service. It is certainly not our service though it is our...

No worries. Thank you very much for posting an update. That's an impressive courtesy. Is the image on your post one of your designs? Looks interesting. Nick

British Woodworking is bi-monthly, and Olly is right that the next issue is out in the last week of May. Please accept our apologies if that wasn't clear when you took out the subscription. It's our way of trying to keep the quality up!!! Do email if anyone has problems with delivery. I must...
